in elite women’s swimming has provided a blueprint for other sports to follow in balancing fairness with inclusion, a top medical official at the global governing body said.

Gerrard said FINA had ample evidence to back its decision, citing experts at Sunday’s congress who showed that male swimmers as young as 14 were posting times that would win Olympic gold in women’s events.“I would respectfully suggest that the transgender community look at the research, and the figures are unequivocally clear in the advantage young males have over mature women in sport.”
